BnwShortPersonBio	Yeshe Dorje (born fourteenth century) from Minyak in Kham was a student of the Karma Kamtsang master Mase Tönpa Rinchen Zangpo (1317–1383), the second Gangkar Lama. The latter is known as one of "the five learned ones from Minyak" and was a student of the Third and Fourth Karmapas, Dölpopa, Butön, and several Kadampa masters. (Adapted from When the Clouds Part, p. 309)
PosBuNayDefProv	Definitive
PosBuNayDefProvNotes	"In particular, YDC refutes that the teaching on the tathāgata heart is one that bears an intention because its claimed bases of intention are not tenable, its purpose is not established, and there is no invalidation of this teaching." Karl Brunnhölzl, When the Clouds Part, p. 310.
PosAllBuddha	Yes
PosAllBuddhaMoreNotes	"YDC clearly subscribes to the disclosure model of buddha nature, asserting that the stainless tathāgata heart adorned with all major and minor marks as well as awakening exists in all beings, refuting that the reality of cessation is a nonimplicative negation, and denying the position that the fully qualified sugata heart exists solely on the buddhabhūmi, while it is only nominal at the time of sentient beings." Karl Brunnhölzl, When the Clouds Part, p. 310.
PosWheelTurn	Third Turning
PosWheelTurnNotes	However, his work has an interesting approach to the second and third wheel turnings: " The second dharma wheel is said to teach primarily the way in which the phenomena of which the basis of emptiness is empty do not exist, while the third wheel teaches mainly that basis of emptiness. Therefore, there is no inner contradiction between these two dharma wheels." Karl Brunnhölzl, When the Clouds Part, p. 310.
PosYogaMadhya	Madhyamaka
PosYogaMadhyaNotes	"YDC denies that the Uttaratantra is a work that belongs to Mere Mentalism." Karl Brunnhölzl, When the Clouds Part, p. 310.
PosZhenRang	Rangtong
PosZhenRangNotes	It is not entirely clear that he would identify with the Rangtong view, but he seems to have issues with Zhentong, as Brunnhölzl points out: "Also, the emptiness taught in the buddha nature sūtras and the Uttaratantra is not "the emptiness of one’s being empty of something other," which is said to be the worst kind of emptiness in the Laṅkāvatārasūtra, but corresponds to this sūtra’s 'great ultimate emptiness of the wisdom of the noble ones.'" Karl Brunnhölzl, When the Clouds Part, p. 310.
PosAnalyticMedit	Analytic Tradition
PosAnalyticMeditNotes	The lineage included within his work on the Uttaratantra passes through Ngok and others who upheld his tradition. See Karl Brunnhölzl, When the Clouds Part, p. 309.
